INSTALLING THE
C
ONFIGURATION MANAGERS
Once you have installed the NJ220 hardware, you need to configure it for use on
your particular network. To configure the NJ220, install the Local and Central
Configuration managers.
System Requirements The machine you install the software on should meet the following requirements:
Pentium processor
Minimum of 15MB disk space
Windows 2000, Windows XP Pro, or Windows NT 4.0 with Service Pack 6
installed (While Windows 95 and Windows 98 are not recommended
operating systems for use with management platforms, the Configuration
Manager software may work with them) or Windows Vista.
Installing the Local
and Central
Configuration
Managers
Run the following steps to install the Configuration Manager software:
1 Insert the Configuration Manager software CD into your Windows 2000,
Windows XP Pro, Windows NT, or Windows Vista computer.
NOTE: You will use the Local Configuration Manager for initial configuration of
the NJ220 on your network. It’s usually easiest if you load this software on a
laptop and use it to configure IntelliJacks as you install them.
The NJ220 Central Configuration Manager is used for advanced configuration
and management of one or more NJ220s on your network. This software
should be installed on the machine you plan to use to manage your NJ220s
from a remote location—perhaps the same console you use for SNMP
management.
